It is also nothing to pay much attention to in high school. Tackle stats have no concrete criteria. I've seen staffs give a kid an assist for pile jumping or even being near a pile.

Lol...true that. We had a LB that supposedly had 120 tackles and I hardly remember him making a solo tackle. Out of Boren and Homan, I think Homan is the most likely to stay on D. I think Boren has hit his ceiling athletically and I think Adam still has room to grow there. Boren ends up at about 260-265 and at FB, unless he ends up at DT. I think both could easily end up at FB but just my opinion. Either way they are strong, tough players who wanted to be Buckeyes. Good enoguh for me.

Known as the Posluszny method mastered by the PSU staff.

I think Zach will get his shot at Linebacker First when he comes to OSU.
He isn't talked too the running back coach or the fullback coach or offense coaches
He has been in contact with Fickell and fickell likes this kid, that's all that matters, it does not matter much if we think he can play there. Fickell has told the kid he wants him at linebacker and linebacker is where the staff told the kid he will be at.
So he will get his shot there and if it does not work then we can place him where he lands.
But we can't just change his position he is translating too in college even after the staff tells him that they are done recruiting linebackers! And also when he and his family tells us that they are recruiting him for linebacker.
It is funny that people think they can change his position just because there is 3 studs who are better than him as of now at linebacker....

As far as I'm concerned, we as Buckeye boosters should all step up (not that a lot already haven't) and welcome not just the boys but Mike & mom as well. If his fellow alumni and boosters are giving the guy crap because of this decision, then in many ways, I'm sure it does nothing but reinforce their piece of mind in making what was a very difficult FAMILY decision.
If giving a man 'flack' over this family decision isn't an indication (yet another) of how tsun believes that the world should and does revolve around them... then nothing is.
Welcome to all of the Boren family. I am very much looking forward to seeing your boys continue their path to manhood under JT. Best wishes to all of you!

Just got my recruiting rag with Duane Long's latest rankings. Long generally misses a few by a good stretch, but this one takes the cake. He rates 106 players from the state of Ohio in order. Zach is not among 'em. (Not national - just Ohio.)
Then he lists "best of the rest" by position. They weren't alphabetical so I can only guess he did those in rank order as well. Zack was #15 among best of the rest RBs.
Not a knock on Zach - just a serious disappointment with Duane.
(He has Fellows as #1 in Ohio BTW.)

Zach looks huge in his new photo shoot with Bucknutz.
I agree, the OHIO HIGH rankings are nice to see but for some reason it seems as though Duane picks favorites and writes several others off without further consideration. Not speaking from personal bitterness or anything!
